Contraband

Miami International Airport has come a long way since the famous “Ramp Rats” arrests in 1999 of dozens of airport workers who were accused of moving drugs and other contraband on international flights.

More than $17 million worth of cocaine will not make it to the streets of South Florida or anywhere else for that matter after the U.S. Coast Guard intercepted the 1,400 pounds of coke from a go-fast vessel in the southwest Caribbean Sea.

South Florida airports handle millions of visitors from around the world. With them they bring millions of bags, jam packed with some of the most bizarre things you can imagine.
